Story:Silent Hill: Origins is the fifth installment in the Silent Hill survival horror series, and a prequel to the original game. As in the previous entries, the player move back and forth between nightmare and real versions of the town, gathering items used to solve puzzles and open up new areas. Monsters of various types provide obstacles and, in series tradition, are mostly disturbingly twisted versions of humanity. The main character can fight with his bare fists or use melee weapons. Unlike previous games in the series, melee weapons break after a time. There are also one-shot items that can be thrown and several guns. There is no HUD, but the edge of the screen turns red when the protagonist is near death.Show more

I've already played it on the emulator and I really liked it, I'm very happy to know that one day we'll have a PC version on GOG!! I used to play it on the emulator on my very weak PC, I also didn't have much money... but now I can buy it.

Meu jogo favorito de PS2 de silent hill e o mais dificil de emular até hoje não consegui jogar no pc. Amo demais a trilha sonora desse jogo, muitos julgam a historia, mas o Silent Hill Origins me marcou, pela dificuldade, ambientação e jogabilidade da epoca, parece até um sonho saber que a GOG, tambem esta se importando em realizar nossos sonhos... Esperando ansiosamente para compra-lo e a coleção das antigas do Silent Hill
I played it on the PSP during the long drives or in a different locations in the country when I couldn't really bring my PS2 and play it in a hotel room all day. The game is something of an enigma in how people feel about it, but being a kid I didn't care and thought it was deep enough in my mind as a kid. Gameplay was good enough for me to get through it. Felt good to beat it and to cross it off my Silent Hill game bucket list. Just because I beat it doesn't mean I wouldn't want to purchase it again. I'd happily fork down money for this game on GoG. If only as a means to show I support the cause of game preservation of a hidden gem where I can turn my brain off and feel smart whenever I solve a puzzle in said game without the internet helping me out.
An underrated entry in the Silent Hill series. Played it back on the PS2 way back when, and I suspect that it lost some of its atmosphere and dread for a lot of players by being released on a handheld system first. It really needs to be experienced on a bigger screen. Contains a great original score by Akira Yamaoka, as well.
really would love this homecoming and downpour to be saved in the collection playing the psp version has been a greeat experience imagine having all the silent hills restored 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 !!! and updated would be a dream come true

Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots
Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the PatriotsMetal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots is the final canonical Metal Gear game to feature Solid Snake as the main character. The gameplay of the previous games have been kept along with some new features, such as the ability to roll on your back and also to hide in bins scattered around the environment. Most of the story and the relationship between the characters are explained through cut-scenes with a considerable length, so knowledge of the prior games is recommended to fully understand the story. The game also features a complex multiplayer mode entitled Metal Gear Online with some original missions based on the stealth aspects of the single-player games.

Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater
Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake EaterMetal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater is the follow up to Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty. It is the first prequel in the series, taking the series to the year 1964. The player takes the role as the series' original antagonist, Big Boss, then known as Naked Snake. MGS3 is the first game in the series to take place in a jungle. This unique setting created an opportunity for new mechanics. The player can adapt to the environment by swapping Snake's camouflage, hunt animals and gather plants for food. This iteration in the series introduced a new feature in which the player must apply medicine and perform medical procedures on Snake if he is damaged in combat. Apart from the survival themed features, the controls and gameplay of the game are very similar to Metal Gear Solid 2. Like other Metal Gear games, the focus is on stealth, but the player can go through the entire game like a shooter if they choose to. Throughout the game Snake acquires weapons of all types; non-lethal firearms, handguns, sniper rifles, machine guns, shotguns, sub-machine guns, and explosives. Metal Gear Solid 3 was the first game to implement the CQC (close quarters combat) system. CQC allowed Snake to beat enemies down to knock them out, or put them in a chokehold to knock them out, kill them, or and/or question them. Metal Gear Solid 3's health system required the player to occasionally pause the game and treat Snake's ailments. When Snake is shot, there is a chance that the bullet didn't pass through him, requiring the player to use a knife to remove the bullet, apply disinfectant, apply styptic and bandage the wound. This was done through a submenu in the pause screen. Other ailments the player must treat Snake for include: leeches, broken bones, burns, cut, arrow/bolts/needles, stomach sickness, colds, and food/venom poisoning. Adding to the survival elements of the game, Snake Eater lives up to its name by requiring the player to scavenge food for Snake. Under the life bar there is stamina bar. If Snake does not eat any food the bar depletes, causing various effects. When the stamina bar is low, the player's ability to aim is severely handicapped, Snake's hands will shake in the first person aiming mode. Just like real life, Snake's stomach can also rumble, enemy soldiers can hear this, and will be alerted to Snake's presence.

Black & White 2
Black & White 2In the game, the player takes the role of a god called from the void (nothingness) to help those who invoked them. However, the player is not an omnipotent style god, but rather a god who rises and falls with his believers and the player must help develop their nature according to their good or evil desires. The player also has a creature, their physical representation in the world, which takes the form of an anthropomorphic ape, lion, wolf, turtle, cow, or tiger. Its physical manifestation can grow to an immense size, and adopt a good or evil persona separate of the player's. They develop their character as the player rewards or punishes their actions. In addition to the god simulation and city-building elements introduced in the original Black & White, Black & White 2 also features elements of real-time strategy gameplay, with the addition of controllable warfare and fighting units.
